Still very small this morning

Hello Friends, No real sign of a wave at Dee Why this morning. Cloudy skies early too. The MHL buoy 0500 report showed 0.8 of a metre at 12 seconds from the SSE and North Head was seeing 5-10kts of wind from the NE as of 0730. Next tide is a high at 1310. By […]

The Goat’s Surf Forecast

The Goat’s Surf Forecast Surf forecast issued Thursday 30 January 2020: Seven day outlook for Sydney: Well if you’d looked at some places today you’d have said there was nothing. And you’d have been right if you didn’t have any imagination.  But if you imagined there were waves, and went out regardless, you might have […]

B1 rider checks in

Warm, sultry, small swell day. B1 reporter took this shot of Long Reef heading south on the way to the city. Little waves and long waits. Promise of more swell on the way. Note to self: Work from home tomorrow.

Really small at Dee Why this morning

Hello Friends, Not sure that you could actually catch anything at Dee Why this morning. The point’s definitely out of the question and I couldn’t see anyone along the beach from the RealSurf crowsnest. I’d say it was ankle to maybe, possibly, knee-thigh high. Curiously the MHL buoy was detecting 1.4 m of SSE at […]

Grey, gloomy and tiny for Wednesday morning

Hello Friends, 8 to 10 knots of southerly and heavy overcast skies as Wednesday got started along the beaches. I couldn’t see anyone in the water at Dee Why or No Mans. Not surprising really when you look at the pictures. Surface conditions were actually relatively smooth, but there is no energy in the ocean […]

Teeny tiny Tuesday

Hello Friends, It’s back to school time and that means lighter weekday crowds for those of us lucky enough to have the flexibility to take advantage of opportunities as they arise. But they’re not arising today at Dee Why. Skies were mostly clear as the day got started and wind was barely registering from the […]

Grey, smoky and tiny again this morning

Hello Friends, Looks to be even smaller than yesterday, and that was pretty sad. The smoke is back, a baleful reminder that all is not well. Swell has faded out to ankle to knee high, if that, at Dee Why beach. The MHL buoy report from 0600 showed wind bump from the NE around to […]

Saturday surf report

Perfect day for the beach!  Might get a little shower but you’re going to get wet anyway. BoM forecast is max around 25, light winds turning onshore..which is happening in Sydney around now. Waves are in the 1-2 metre range, mostly around 1 or a bit more, and occasionally bigger from Eastish / East South […]

The Goat’s Surf Forecast

The Goat’s Surf Forecast Surf forecast issued Thursday 23 January 2020: Seven day outlook for Sydney: Bit warmish today, with a bit of dust in the air. The wind is expected to turn south early tomorrow morning to cool down the temp for you. My mates and I have looked at the surf all week, […]

B1 report down but not out

Lovely morning to start a very hot Sydney day.  Swell has backed of further but still some fun waves to be had.   Numbers have dwindled from previous days also.   Worth a paddle. Mona Vale early……
